What I'm looking for

I am looking for a remote role that allows me to utilize my analytical skills in grant writing or compliance analysis, contributing to mission-driven organizations.

I am a detail-oriented accounting professional with over a decade of experience in financial reporting, federal grant management, and compliance. My ability to translate complex financial data into clear, compelling narratives has been a cornerstone of my career. I have a proven track record in preparing remittance advice, managing cost allocations, and producing federal financial status reports.

Currently, I serve as a Senior Accounting Officer Specialist at the State of California, Department of Fish and Wildlife, where I review and analyze monthly expenditure reports and prepare financial status reports for federal grants. My previous roles have equipped me with a robust skill set in financial analysis, budgeting, and regulatory compliance, allowing me to contribute effectively to mission-driven organizations.

I am seeking a remote position in grant writing or compliance analysis where I can leverage my analytical skills and passion for supporting impactful initiatives. I thrive in collaborative environments and am dedicated to continuous learning and staff development.
